8,622 sq ft Description An exceptional period house situated in the heart of the historic Thameside village of Bray. Chauntry House, originally built in 1754, has been fully renovated and restored to exacting standards creating a fine country residence. This unique property which is beautifully styled by the current owner cleverly combines original features together with modern amenities. Features include deep bay windows to the front, fireplaces to the principal rooms, high ceilings, ornate cornicing and celling roses which are complimented by modern leisure facilities including spa with sauna, steam room and hot tub. The result is a lovely home of great character and charm, situated in a picturesque village setting adjoining Bray Church and enjoying pleasant views over Bray cricket ground. Gardens and Grounds The property is approached via electrically operated wrought iron gates which open onto a sweeping shingle driveway leading to an extensive parking area to the front of the house. The delightful landscaped gardens which offer a high degree of seclusion and privacy are principally laid to lawn with inset flower/shrub beds. Mature trees including a magnificent redwood and a cedar are a particular feature in the gardens which wrap around the house. Of particular note is the walled courtyard garden with paved pathways and formal planting in raised beds. From here there are views of the tower of St. Michael's Church.
